The group exhibition showcases the finalists of the 2nd Annual Sfumato Art Competition under the theme Metamorphosis. Selected from an international open call, the participating artists present diverse approaches across painting, sculpture, photography, digital art, video, and mixed media.
Each piece contributes to a collective narrative that embraces growth, decay, transition, and reinvention. From deeply personal journeys to broader social commentary, the exhibition highlights the power of art to document change and provoke reflection.
Metamorphosis is the central theme of the 2nd Annual Sfumato Art Competition, inviting artists to explore transformation in all its forms—physical, emotional, spiritual, social, or ecological. This exhibition presents a curated selection of works that reflect the complex processes of becoming, shedding, evolving, and renewing. Whether through personal narratives, imaginative visions, or socio-political commentary, each artwork offers a unique interpretation of change as both a challenge and a creative force.
In a time when shifts—internal and external—define our collective experience, Metamorphosis acts as a mirror and a map, revealing where we’ve been and where we might go.
